Meet The Manager
Emma Mackenzie Bedford is The Home Manager at Henley House.
Hi, I am Emma and I am General Manager at Henley House.
I am a dual qualified nurse and following my qualification as a RGN at the Royal Isle of Wight School of Nursing, I completed my Mental Health Nurse (RMN) qualifications at Brunel University.
I have worked in various roles within health and social care since qualifying including commissioning care homes, completing turnaround projects and working as a registered Manager. My passion in care is improving the quality of care for the elderly but especially for those living with dementia.
Henley House is one of the most highly regarded residential and Dementia Homes in the Ipswich. The Henley Team and residents transferred from the very highly regarded Thornbank which recently closed down. It enjoys an excellent reputation with the local healthcare professionals.
This puts Henley House in a unique position: it has the very best care provision, activities and quality of life built up over a generation of care service combined with the stunning building and facilities only available in a brand new purpose built care home.
The home is managed by Greensleeves Care a not-for-profit organisation and one of the best and most respected care charities in the country.
